Issue #16249 has been updated by zverok (Victor Shepelev).

> This checks a directory named the current `Dir` object opened, instead of the opened directory itself.

I am not sure I understand (probably it is my lack of in-depth filesystem work understanding), for what I can tell, we have a directory object with some path, and check if directory with this path is empty?..

Feature #16249: Dir#empty? and File#empty?
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/16249#change-82183

----------------------------------------
I don't think it is a super-valuable addition (as nobody complained about it, or I can't find similar proposals), but seems logical to me:

```ruby
# Existed since 2.4
Dir.empty?('dirname') #=> true/false
File.empty?('filename') # => true/false

# Proposed and implemented:
Dir.open('dirname').empty?
File.open('filename').empty?
```
